• Perfect symbiosis of racing technology and reliability for touring drivers
• Suitable for all conventional Cosa2 clutch baskets (lug width as original, 14mm)

The bgm PRO Touring aluminum rubbers combine the advantages of the popular CR80 racing rubbers with the high demands of touring riders.

Vespa Cosa clutch upgrade

SOLID BASE SUPPORT

The brake pads use an aluminum carrier, whose lugs for the clutch basket have a large contact surface. This makes the pads very stable over the long term. The slow shearing off of the plates, which often occurs with conventional clutch facings with steel carrier, is completely eliminated due to the large contact surface. The clutch is also thermally more resilient due to the aluminum. This is a great advantage in extreme situations (eg starting with a lot of load on a steep mountain pass road), but also offers a reassuring reserve in everyday life. The width of the flaps is manufactured for an exact fit so that the pads lie in the basket with almost no play.

DURABLE AND NON-SLIP CLUTCH FACING MATERIAL

For the clutch disks of the bgm PRO TOURING aluminum pads the same high quality sintered material is used as for the CR80 racing pads. Due to the larger contact surface in the TOURING version, the clutch engagement is softer and not aggressive. The large contact surface also improves the durability.

FULLY COMPATIBLE

The bgm PRO TOURING Alu clutch facings are designed as 1: 1 replacement for conventional Cosa2 clutch facings. They harmonize perfectly with the standard steel discs.
The thickness of the clutch facing package is the same as the original, so that no shims or spacers have to be used. The clutch facings fit all standard clutches of the Vespa Cosa2 models, the PX125-200 models from 1998 onwards as well as all vehicles retrofitted with a Cosa2 clutch. The pads are also compatible with clutches / clutch baskets based on the Cosa2 technology, e.g. Clutch -SC-, MMW, Scooter & Service or Ultrastrong. (plate width like original = 14mm)

NOT FITTING

The pads are not suitable for clutch plates / baskets that have been specially manufactured to accept CR80 clutch plates, eg BGM PRO Superstrong 2.0 CR80, ONKEL MIKE 'DDOG' CNC or similar (plate width CR80 = 16mm)

SCOPE OF DELIVERY

The set contains:

• 1x clutch cover plate (one-sided lining)
• 3x clutch friction plates (lining on both sides)

Sufficient for a Cosa2 coupling.

CONCLUSION: The BGM PRO TOURING aluminum clutch facings are an ideal upgrade of your Vespa Cosa2 clutch.
